Hi,
Can I put in one tank C.sp. Bumble-bee and "Red crystal". As I hope it's both Caridina serrata only two colors.
Will they successfully crossbreed? Or will they cross-breed with no babies?
Which colors could be young ones?

I saw some unusual looking juvenile shrimps in a friend's mix tank of bumble bee and Crystal red, they do cross breed.

The color of the cross product is uniquely ugly, it does not resemblance bumble bee nor crystal red, which is quite expected, it has some brown portion, but no bars like bee or CRS.
